Their escape from a grim future in a circus camp was facilitated by the generosity of Gertrude Andraschko, Robyn Beasley, Dr. Dawn Miller, and Miss Linee Keswani. Saengduean Lek Chailert, the dedicated owner of ENP, spearheaded the rescue mission.

Upon their arrival, LekLek and Moh Loh were quarantined to ensure their health before being introduced to the park’s lush, open environment.
